  • 1.  Caller ID not set properly when consulting

    Posted 26 days ago

    Hello

    I have quite a challenging implementation situation.

    General Concept

    There is a known GC behavior, that when on a call (from a queue), then, consulting with external Participant

    The Caller Id is not set as the Caller Id of the queue in which the call came from, but GC refer to the "Outgoing Consultation call" as a new call that is not

    On behalf of a queue, and there is no option to select queue, so, we stuck with the site Caller Id or the trunk Caller Id

    My Situation

    I have specific situation in which, every team has numerous DID Numbers that sending calls to them via Queues, and the number of DID Numbers

    In the Org is much more then 100 DID's,

    And unlike other Orgs, each DID is unique and has no relation to the other, so if the Agent Consulting with external participant, he must have the 

    Specific Caller Id of the Queue that the inbound call came from.

    Cumbersome Solution
    So, ideally, if GC was automatically setting the caller Id as the Caller Id of the Queue it was the perfect solution, but that's not the current behavior of GC

    So, the practical solution is to handle this gap between raw system capability to the business need, is by:

    setting multiple Sites, each site for each group of DID's, and then, setting number plans on the site, that routes calls to different trunks

    by the prefix that the Agent type before the dialed number, for example if Sales Q is prefix 9, and Service Q is prefix 8, so:

    "9<dialed number>" is routed to Trunk 1, and "8<dialed number>" is routed to Trunk 2

    Then in each Trunk has different Caller Id, essentially creating as much trunk as the number of DID's in the Org,

    Thus, if the Agent wants to go with the Sales Q Id in the consult call, he will type 9 before the Dialed number and for the Service Q he will type 8 receptively.

    This is very cumbersome solution, reminding me of Avaya systems and Old Legacy Solutions

    I'd be very happy to hear about Simpler practical solutions

    Many thanks in advanced

    Hello Shahar,

    You should be able to change the Prioritized Caller Selection feature on your trunk so that it will use the Call Source (Queue/Campaign/User DID) for the caller ID info.

    Hey Jason

    My Trunk already set to pass Queue/Campaign/User DID Id

    What you suggested is correct if the Agent is placing new call on behalf of a queue, but my problem is in scenario when the Agent already 

    In a call, and now he is doing consult with external participant, the consult outgoing call has no queue identification, so, the trunk looks at the source of 

    The call as the Agent and not as the Queue

    Thanks, and best regards, Shahar

    The Caller Id development 'might' cover your scenario, though it is not clear if it is for consult.

    Hey Kevin, thanks for that response

    It seems that my concern is not directly described there, but since its in "In Development" Status,

    And the headline is "improving caller Id", so I'll post my use case there, maybe they will bundle it in

    Thanks Kevin,

    Best regards,
